KTLA’s Sam Rubin Gives Perez Hilton The Heave Ho

KTLA Anchor Slams Perez Hilton: ‘You Talentless Dope!’

What began as a scheduling snafu for Perez Hilton on KTLA’s Morning Show has quickly escalated into a full blown battle.

Hilton and KTLA anchor Sam Rubin offer differing accounts of what prompted the gossip blogger to leave the studio before his scheduled appearance Monday. Hilton tweeted the saga throughout the morning Monday, culminating in his request for an “on-air apology/retraction”.

Anchor Sam Rubin had his response for Hilton on Tuesday’s show, and it was not quite the apology Hilton was hoping for:

Perez said we lied about what happened here, and he demanded a retraction…Well demand this you talentless dope, here is what really happened.

Sam goes on with his venomous “deposition,” detailing his version of the events. According to Rubin, Perez was booked for a 9:20AM slot on the morning show, but his staff had him arriving at 8AM. The earlier slots on the show were taken by the unlikely combination of Snoop Dogg and a children’s choir, so moving him up was not an option. Upon finding out he was scheduled an hour later, Hilton decided he could not wait, as he needed to tend to his blog. KTLA offered him an office in which to work, Hilton instead offered to make an appearance via Skype.

Rubin concluded his comments on a poetic note:

The KTLA Morning News and yours truly have been here long before Perez Hilton upchucked his way on to the scene, and we will be here long after he slithers away.

Needless to say, he is no longer welcome on the KTLA Morning Show.

WATCH the video. It is a good one:

    Go Sam Rubin! I am grinning from ear to ear. Love it!

    Go Sam!!! Perez’s time is up. PH has proven himself to be a no talent, filthy little man with nothing to offer the entertainment industry. He is hated by many.

    I hate Hilton as much as I hate Lambert. Two self-absorbed, self-important primadonnas who act like the world revolves around them. No wonder they’re friends with each other. I wish they both go away. I’m sure it was THAT important that he had to leave the news studio to get back to that crappy “blog” of his. What does he do on it, anyway? Draw pictures of penises on pictures of celebrities? That’s pretty important, if you’re a 6 year old.

    I don’t know what to say except I believe Perez Hilton (his phony name) is an idiot and I cannot understand why so many programs allow him to be on. The man is in no way a respectable journalist of any type. Way to go Sam Rubin and I hope more programs follow suit!
